  2. 16. Textile-enabled Bioimpedance Instrumentation for Personalised Health Monitoring Applications

    Author : Javier Ferreira Gonzalez; Kaj Lindecrantz; Fernando Seoane; Javier Jiménez Leube; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; personal healthcare systems; bioimpedance; wearable; portable; monitoring; textrodes; body composition; chronic kidney disease; ambient assisting living; wireless sensor;

    Abstract : A growing number of factors, including the costs, technological advancements, an ageing population, and medical errors are leading industrialised countries to invest in research on alternative solutions to improving their health care systems and increasing patients’ life quality. Personal Health System (PHS) solutions envision the use of information and communication technologies that enable a paradigm shift from the traditional hospital-centred healthcare delivery model toward a preventive and person-centred approach.

  4. 17. Development of array systems for molecular diagnostic assays

    Author : Philippa Reuterswärd; Catherine M. Klapperich; KTH; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Bioteknologi; Biotechnology;

    Abstract : For molecular diagnostics, assays detecting biomarkers can be used to provide information to medical questions. Array formats such as microarrays and suspension bead arrays allow for multiplex assays, analyzing hundreds or thousands of analytes simultaneously in one single sample. READ MORE

  5. 18. A Theoretical Model for Telemedicine : Social and Value Outcomes in Sub-Saharan Africa

    Author : Mengistu Kifle Gelan; Lars Asker; Philip F. Musa; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Telemedicine e-health; Sub-Saharan Africa; Least developed Countries; Visually based Clinical Applications; Information and Communication Technology ICT Transfer; Partial Least Squares; Culture; Computer and systems science; Data- och systemvetenskap;

    Abstract : The Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) region is faced with limited medical personnel and healthcare services to address the many healthcare problems of the region. Poor health indicators reflect the overall decline in socio-economic development. READ MORE
